This is not a workshop. A workshop rarely changes teaching. Experiences change teaching. What has been a professional development experience that changed the way you teach?

Pre School vs. High School

I was in a preschool today and I watched the lesson unfold.

It started with an introduction to a letter and its sound,then the phonics dance,then the sound train,then writing words with the letter,then circling the letters in the words,then a fishing game for the letter,then the students wrote the letter.

Why does learning in pre school get to be so involved and then in highschool we use powerpoint and call that for the visual learner and the lecture for the audiatory? Seriously.
